[shittybullshit]

[sirvaan]

cool music kinda sounds like a more metal influenced rush in a way.

[b0w13nspac3]

we, did you know these guys?

[kball69]

ppl ppl, gotta start somewhere. no matter what is said, he had the guts and now is a killer writer/player. LONG LIVE PUMPKINS !!!

[thousandlegger]

have you ever been approached by anyone doing a smashing pumpkins documentary or VH1 or anything? this footage is a goldmine! hahah

[agentmarge]

Everyone listen to the blink fan... because they obviously have good taste... not!

[Deucealive75]

The first half sounds very Rush like, then the fast part sounds like Maiden. Very good drumming if you ask me. A couple mistakes but so what? It's rock n roll.

[anusnorton]

Thanks for the drummer comment! I was 17 or 18, can't remember.

[immeohmyoh]

the bio on billy is that he had it rough as a child, with some sort of abuse or something. And yet, in all these pre-sp vids he's always smiling and looks really happy and healthy too. Plus what kinda kids had this video-quality video & the time, money, place, knowhow, and forethought to set it up, in the mid-80's? it seems to me that billy had some rich friends and their families, and some good musical influences w/ his dad around and hexen. im startin' to think billy had it better than me!

[frkuency]

wow.u mean to tell me havin rich kids for friends means ur family troubles will go away?? his father was a travelling blues musician that was never home and he had to deal with his stepmom instead.she was the one whom he experienced physical &emotional abuse when he was a kid. In1985 he was 18 and was probably just before he moved to florida. and ever thought that maybe just maybe music was the one thing that made him a bit happier? did you actually think his depression and abuse was a joke???

[immeohmyoh]

hey man, didnt mean to suprise or offend. lets call his 'depression' or whatever a depression w/ a 'small d'. as it seems he's really jamming here, and very happy. it's evident he had a certain freedom that most kids don't have, to explore their talents and imagination, via his travelling dad and/or living w/ stepmom. i certainly dont deny, and agree, that music was a great release for him. Not a big beleiver in 'prodigy's' or 'depression'. Seems Billy had it good, in a lot of ways.

[44182blink]

your dooche bag dude,dont ever listen to the pumpkins,you'll jinx the band

[immeohmyoh]

@44182blink

hey, all im trying to say is that he's got some talent, and was able to develop his talent. not everyone gets that chance.  this song rocks btw. p.s. u cant you're nor douche. and sp is mah favorite. pps what's to jink? and if anything gonna jinx anything its you for bringin' negativity, alls i was doin' was trying to make a statement. band or no band, i know bc will keep playing good music.
